F# CTP release update

F# CTP release update

It’s been a week now since we posted the F# September 2008 CTP release, and it’s been fantastic to see the great response from existing and new F# users alike. We’ve received a lot of good feedback too, and a big thank you to everyone who has taken the time to email us with suggestions and issues.

Taking into account this feedback, today we posted a minor update to the CTP release that addresses some of the issues (this replaces the original release and uses the same download link). For example, support for units of measure on decimal types was limited in the first CTP release, and this has now been addressed.

The specific issues addressed are listed in the detailed release notes for the CTP. The new version number is 1.9.6.2. Happy programming!

[ note: at the time of writing the version number on the download page was still saying 1.9.6.0, though the actual MSI or ZIP reached via the download button is 1.9.6.2 ]
